Araracuara Airport (IATA: ACR, ICAO: SKAC) is an airport serving Araracuara, in the Caquetá Department of Colombia. Araracuara was the site of a former penal colony for Colombia's worst and most dangerous criminals.[4][5] The town and airport are on the north bank of the Caquetá River, an eventual tributary of the Amazon River.
The Araracuara non-directional beacon (Ident: ARA) is located just south of the airport.[6]
